This website will detail all aspects of the Chinese Type56 SKS carbine from original military examples to commercial models including important data, research, descriptions, pictures, and more. Many collectors have contributed this far, but we still have a long way to go and will be updating the site regularly. If you would like to participate/help us collect more data, please take a few minutes of your time to tell us about your rifle by completing the Chinese SKS Survey below, Thank You!

MISSION STATEMENT

A website dedicated to the study, evolution and theory of the Chinese SKS. Models under taken will included the earliest Soviet-Sino, to imported commercial versions, to current imports and everything in between. The mystery surrounding these weapons has been guessed at and discussed time and time again, causing a lot of false info to be spread through time. Here, on this site, we will consider all angles, investigate both old theories as well as new ones in a neutral, unbiased form. Until China releases any and all info, it's all speculation, but discussion, new research along with older info and insight could provide new answers, taking the mystery out of this rifle.
